This marks a highly-anticipated return to sketch comedy for Chappelle following his critically-acclaimed and beloved run as the star of Comedy Central’s “Chappelle’s Show.”
Meanwhile, Tribe will be celebrating the release of their final album, We Got It From Here, Thank You for Your Service, which will feature every member of the group as well as appearances by André 3000, Kendrick Lamar, Elton John, Jack White, and Busta Rhymes. The project arrives a day before their scheduled “SNL” appearance.
Before that happens, however, Solange Knowles is set to be the musical guest this weekend with host Benedict Cumberbatch.
